  1. I can hear some serious jazz playing being done in this context: Now, let's hear all the "reasons" why it couldn't/shouldn't/won't happen (and I'm sure there will be many), and then ask again if jazz can be saved.
  2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o05EKVVIynw http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=52397
  3. If I called bullshit on JackChick25/Carole, then I must equally call it here. No energy for detail right now, but let me ask you this - why would anybody take the word of a "jazz musician" as to what people are or aren't dancing to? That's kinda like asking a vegan who's making the best steaks in town.
  4. Plenty more here! http://www.slightlywarped.com/crapfactory/...aurantnames.htm
  5. The harder you try to keep it alive, the more it'll die. If you want it to live, let it "die", and then watch it come back - just not looking or sounding like it did before. But it'll be alive like a motherfucker!
  6. Smokers know 'cause it matches the number of cigarettes in a pack. My smoking was almost always done w/a lighter. Matches were a worst-case scenario. Never cared for the sulphur.
  7. MAJOR congrats on the new Minor!!!
  8. Madge did Palmolive, and Palmolive did daytime TV big time. Same as Josephine the Plumber.
  9. Pocket Fisherman! RonCo!
  10. Only one Braith solo on the entire record, and a somewhat generic one at that. Oh well.
  11. http://www.discogs.com/Roy-Ayers-Ubiquity-.../release/432633 Listening to it now...about what you'd think, whatever that might be...
  12. Autopsy: Cocaine contributed to Billy Mays' death
  13. Still getting tonloads of these
  14. Just wondering...
  15. How 'bout some NBC peacocks? The one I remember from the 60s....wonderful underscore by Jack Easton: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_quer..._type=&aq=f An earlier version, of which I have no memory, but DAMN that's some bold music (by Louis A. Garisto) just to introduce a TV show: Learn all about it here: http://www.classicthemes.com/50sTVThemes/t...ivingColor.html and here: http://www.big13.net/NBC%20Peacock/NBCPeacock1.htm
  16. Not sure i see any real problem w/that one...Harry James is ok by me fqr more often than not...Buddy Rich & Red Kelley (aka Uncle Fester) laying down a nice groove, a very Basie-ish chart (if you didn't already know it was "Green Onions", would you guess, or would you think it was jsut some Basie thing?), electric piano (in a Harry James band! in 1965!)...not crazy about that clarinet solo, but that's when I turn towards the rhythm section...the only thing I would even think about "counteracting" is those glasses/haircuts combos, but hell, it was 1965 and this was a big band...
  17. And I just want to stress again that when I call something "bullshit", I use it entirely in the vernacular, not as a personal insult. I realize that not everybody speaks the same language the same way, but such is life (and yes, for those of you who wonder, I would say the same thing to her face, and if anything, it would be less abrasive, because she would be able to see the smile on my face, the laughter in my voice, and the twinkle in my eye when I said it). I think that her response to me showed that Carole was hip enough to get that, and I do appreciate that.
  18. Surely it'll get put back up. I mean, hey...
